What about for my first event? What vehicle prep should I do before I leave (other than general checking the car over, fluids, etc)? Anything I should bring with me besides water and suncreen? Is there any prep I should do at the track?
Trac/VSC on/Off/ Pedal dance?
Any advice for this newbie would be greatly appreciated!

Hey, B2B, look for me on the 17th. I'll be driving STX in a WRB BRZ.
This is my first year in this car and running with this club (started with the local BMWCCA chapter a couple years ago), so I can't add a lot on the "what to expect." I started with a similar school, and it was a great help. The first real run the cones were still coming at me a lot quicker than I could reliably process (took a DNF), but it got better quickly. Don't try to smash your first run, try to get quicker each one after that, and enjoy!
